It’s 2024, we’re on X, and showing proof to the contrary of what one thinks equates to ignorance and aggression. The @SocEnvJustice want social and environmental justice! But not environmental really, they just don’t want LTNs but don’t want to admit that.
I’ve muted that acct. Can’t be bothered with that level of ignorance and aggression combined.

Oh no did I say something right 😆
I’m blocking in a minute or so …. Just to confirm …. Council showed evaporation while not including slow moving vehicles.

1/16 You've heard a million times that sanctions against Putin's regime don't work. That Putin isn't actually affected by them. That's right because he isn't.The same approach is tried over and over for almost 2 years, yielding no results. How about I suggest something different?

Hey @Alpkit, For a company that claims to be environmentally friendly you seem quite happy to send marketing by post to people who’ve said they specifically don’t want it. This happens EVERY TIME I make a new order through your website, and I have to contact you […]

[…] to be removed from your marketing list every single time. Can you please sort out your processes and start honouring users’ preferences, and stop signing them up to your lists whenever they make an order? It’s fucking infuriating. /rant

The Express has a poll in dire need of more input... Please take a moment to vote, and then pass it on. (The link below will take you straight to the poll, bypassing the Express website, so they won't benefit from your visit. Ignore the email request.) xd.wayin.com/display/contain…

GB News would like you to know (again) that they strongly condemn personal, ad hominem attacks...

It seems that Michelle Mone is about to be rehabilitated and returned to the House of Lords. If you want to see Michelle Mone kicked out of the House of Lords and arrested until she pays the £223,000,000 she owes give this a RT. We won't forget.

A short film about why the dirtiest and most antisocial economic interests dominate our politics. I believe it's the key to understanding the terrible state we're in.

I'm currently the target of a significant scam operation on Twitter involving 100s of profiles . They come in the form of paid-for adverts claiming that I made money from cryptocurrencies , then using my fake 'endorsement' to encourage others to invest too . . . For the avoidance of doubt , these are all scams . Please RT ! And @ElonMusk @Safety - please fix this !

👋 I’m on the lookout for new opportunities. Ideally looking for Tech lead, or similar, roles working with modern, cloud-first technical architectures (Contentful, Algolia, Netlify, Cloudflare, React, Gatsby etc) and self-organising, cross functional, agile teams. 1/2

The UK is the kind of country where it’s totally normal for the government to announce that “95% of schools are unlikely to collapse on children” and to give themselves a pat on the back for such outstanding excellence

Starmer has written in the Express that he will not restore Freedom of Movement. Please retweet if you want our Freedom of Movement restored. We were robbed of our right to live, work, study and love in 30 countries by the worst abuses of democracy in modern British history.

That’s beautiful. Could someone remove the cars in the background?
The first couple of seconds in this video are proof that no one is using London's cycleways. Remember that next time you see 'photo proof' of unused cycleways. vid @CyclingWorksLDN

Dear Lord Bethell, thank you for being willing to engage. I'm providing my reply here, in a thread & a linked letter, given that the public is clearly interested in this topic. I am hopeful that we can find common ground. Here, then, is the letter: signal.org/blog/pdfs/LBRespo… 1/
Replying to @mer__edith
Hi Meredith. Thank you for reaching out. I'd be glad to discuss this before Third Reading. As you will remember from the very detailed scrutiny of the bill, Parliament did not agree that the bill was "undermining the safety & security of the UK's core infrastructure & basic rights" and if Parliament had thought this was the case, it would not have passed these measures. I have worked on the internet for 25 years and hardly a year has gone by without a passionate internet entrepreneur telling us all that what was proposed would "undermine the safety & security of the UK's core infrastructure & basic rights". This is a very nuanced policy area with a number of competing priorities which include the safety of our children and our national security. It does not help to try to paint the world in absolute values when things are more complex. But if you would like a chance to talk through your concerns, I would be glad to engage. [email protected]

Hey @VMware, nice of you to let me register for a Personal licence, then download a 25Gb (!) Windows 11 image, only to tell me when I try to boot it up that you don't support Apple Silicon! Guess I'll go back to @virtualbox then 😉
